I've looking into making a shield before, but I never installed it because it was very primitive. The cat currently has a stock shield on it, that starts where the cat bolts up to its brace, and goes forward maybe 6 inches.
Where the oil is burning, I would need to cover at least 12 inches forward of this point. I suspected alot of vibration and banging around covering this distance from that back brace so I did not install the shield I cut out.
Has anyone made one that bolts to the engine or car, and not to the exhaust? I could then locate a smaller one right at the burn area. This would also allow me to make changes to the exhuast without changing the shield (I see a new cat, and maybe a 3" exhaust in the future).
Thanks again,
-Andy
